Abstract The concept of ‘One Health’ (OH) has gathered momentum among the public health and animal health communities as an important global policy agenda for drawing together these disciplines to inform urban planning and health security policies. OH research, from a risk governance perspective, is generally concerned with identifying preventative programmes that can minimise the threats posed by diseases at the animal‐human interface (e.g. Corona virus, Ebola, avian influenza, the Q virus, for example). This article, by drawing on examples of disease threats, discusses the multi‐level challenges of establishing OH with a particular focus on urban change. It considers the risks posed by the increasing urbanisation of animal habitats and what this means for achieving OH. The article concludes by discussing why social scientists need to pay greater attention to the concept of OH.

疾病引起的威胁的全球危机领导力：健康与城市化之一

摘要 “一个健康”(OH) 的概念在公共卫生和动物健康社区中得到了发展，作为一项重要的全球政策议程，将这些学科结合起来，为城市规划和健康安全政策提供信息。从风险治理的角度来看，OH 研究通常涉及确定预防计划，以最大限度地减少动物与人类接触的疾病（例如冠状病毒、埃博拉病毒、禽流感、Q 病毒）造成的威胁。本文通过引用疾病威胁的例子，讨论了建立 OH 的多层次挑战，特别关注城市变化。它考虑了动物栖息地日益城市化带来的风险以及这对实现 OH 意味着什么。
